As with all flooring, the best care is regular care.  Sweep or vacuum your ceramic tile floors at least once a week, more often if it gets regular use.  Dust and lint can evolve into grime if they are not promptly removed, especially in areas where there is moisture.

Since ceramic tile is often used in “wet” areas of the home, it is likely that it will be subject to different spills and spots.  Simple washing or mopping with hot water and a mild household detergent should wipe away anything that finds its way to your ceramic floors.  The hot water helps loosen any dirt that collects in the spill, and the detergent lifts any oily substance on the floor.  If a “once-over” is not enough to remove all of the spill, try a second pass over the floor with a sponge or mop.  If the spill remains stubborn, you can use a soft brush or synthetic scouring pad to loosen the spot, but do not use steel wool or a metal brush, as these may scratch the surface of the tiles.

After washing a ceramic tile floor, be sure to thoroughly rinse the floor with clean water.  This will remove any detergent residue from setting and attracting more dirt to your floor.
